Advanced building automation technologies include a decision-making ability within the individual control devices, which are linked by a common data communication protocol that governs the electronic signals passed between devices to ensure that they are all speaking the same language. If the structure of the protocol language is available to all manufacturers so that they can produce and market compatible control devices, then it is known as an open protocol. Building Automation: System Integration with Open Protocols is the second book in a two-book series on building automation. The first book, Building Automation: Control Devices and Applications, addresses the basic functions of building systems and how devices are used to monitor and control these systems. This second book introduces the concepts of intelligent devices, automated control, and network communication using open protocols. The two primary protocols for wired networks, LonWorks® and BACnet®, are described in detail, including information about their communication methods, information architecture, configuration, operation, and troubleshooting. Building Automation: System Integration with Open Protocols provides a foundation of control concepts and network data communication in the first three chapters. After the LonWorks and BACnet sections, the final three chapters offer capstone coverage of previous chapter concepts and their relationships. The System Integration chapter includes a series of applications that illustrate the design, installation, and configuration of each protocol in various scenarios. Applications highlight the implementation differences between the protocols in different situations. The Cross-Protocol Integration chapter discusses the future of building automation, such as greater capabilities in system control and new technologies in network communication and protocol languages.

A building automation system is a network of "intelligent" control devices used in one or more building systems, such as HVAC, lighting, and security systems. Building automation systems operate cooperatively to share building information and control system devices automatically according to programmed logic. Building Automation: Control Devices and Applications focuses on these control devices and how they work together in common automation scenarios. This textbook covers the operation, signals, and functions of the senors, acutators, and other control equipment used in automated systems in commercial buidlings. The textbook is organized by building system, and each system is explained so that the function and application of each device is clear. The system-based foundation is then used to discuss the typical interactions between multiple systems in automated buildings.

The development of micro electronics and advances in digital technology have revolutionized building control systems. HVAC, lighting and other building systems controlled by traditional pneumatics, timers, switches, and thermostats may appear to function well. But slow response, calibration shifts, mechanical wear, and inability to coordinate operations with other systems results in wasted energy and inconsistent levels of comfort. On the other hand, Direct Digital Control (DDC) connected to a central computer can integrate all building systems...performing complex control sequences automatically...improving building environments and lowering costs at the same time.

BACnet is a data communication protocol for building automation and control systems, developed within ASHRAE in cooperation with ANSI, CEN, and the ISO. This new book, by the original chairman of the BACnet committee, explains how the BACnet protocol manages all basic building functions in a seamless, integrated way. The book explains how BACnet works with all major control systems--including those of Honeywell, Siemens and Johnson Controls--to manage everything from heating to ventilation to lighting to fire control and alarm systems. BACnet is used today throughout the world in commercial and institutional buildings with complex mechanical and electrical systems. Contractors, architects, building systems engineers and facilities managers must all be cognizant of BACnet and its applications. With a real 'seat at the table', you ll find it easier to understand the intent and use of each of the data sharing techniques, controller requirements, and opportunities for interoperability between different manufacturers' controllers and systems. Highlights include: A review of the history of BACnet and its essential features, including the object model, data links, network technologies and BACnet system configurations; Comprehensive coverage of services including object access, file access, remote device management and BACnet-2012's new alarm and event capabilities; Insight into future directions for BACnet, including wireless networking, network security, the use of IPv6, extensions for lifts and escalators, and a new set of BACnet Web Services; Extensive Reference Appendices for all Objects and Services; and Acronyms and Abbreviations

A compilation of papers from architects, engineers, telecommunications experts, and IT consultants, providing a unique and authoritative overview of the state of the art in all aspects of intelligent building technology. Contributors describe how intelligent buildings can be designed to incorporate the infrastructure required by contemporary communications and data-processing systems, and even how a °robot° building can function automatically with respect to environmental management, fire protection, and security.
